Global Shufflers typically engage online because of the sometimes vast geographic distances between them. This in no way diminishes the friendships which can last 20+ years, with shufflers keeping in touch about their lives, relationships, families and friends.

At times they arrange shuffle 'meet-ups' which are informal social occasions for shuffle friends to meet at a physical location, spend some time together and often meet other shufflers in person for the first time.

Anyone can be creative. Without it we couldn't adapt to a new situation or the unknown. I worked for more than a decade as a Music and Arts therapist in Australia in the 1980's with traumatised teens and adult professionals. Part of the work was to conduct clinical research into 'Creativity' to formalise therapeutic use in Public Health systems across the globe.

The images from the CybaFaeries and WolfDragons CD come from my Sami family culture. Sami, sometimes referred to as indigenous Europeans or Fairy's, come from the northern Norway / Sweden / Finland area going back some 8000 years BCE.

My family language of Northern Sami was illegal for 200 years up until 1958.

The CybaFaeries and WolfDragons Album physical CD Collector Version is currently being prepared for shipping to international distribution centre's and will be availible online thru AMAZON and Facebook-Shopify shortly

I had a keyboard musician friend in the late 1980's who wrote technical instruction/user/service manuals for computers and digital technology. "Oh I don't read manuals" I joked, "I write manuals for people Who don't read manuals" he laughed in response. "Oh ..." is all I could say, for one of those rare occasions I was stumped for a smart-arsed response. "So you know people find them tedious and boring ?" He nodded Yes ".. er so what do you say in these manuals ? " I asked again. He just smiled and laughed

I'm currently preparing a set of prints for sale thru Imagekind, which I'm planning to have published on this site with links to the print order site, within the next week or so.

The images are from Video footage I took in the early-mid 1990's around Melbourne and are being enhanced with video colour processing. I used this camera (pic below) mostly, a Panasonic MS1, SuperVHS, seen here below retired to my Nicholas Building display case 2005 - With dust and grunge on the case glass which I should of cleaned off before taking the pic :-) I've removed the camera shell to show the tape transport mechanism.

They are still frames, which is kinda odd, seeing as video essentially captures motion. Normally you'd use a stills camera to take still photos.
